This is news??? Anyone whos lived very long in NE knows winter isnt truly done until April/May.
Those snowstorms after early March aren’t even minor inconveniences, as long as folks are smart enough to stay off the roads and let the plowing get done. They melt.
That’s for damned sure. My wife is from Oregon. She is ready to plant flowers the first weekend it gets above 60 degrees here in southeastern PA. I told her I’ve seen it snow in April. She didn’t believe me until her petunias were buried by a mid-April snow storm.
